For updated 2009 General Election results go to: www.pima.gov/elections, click on “results” for the November 3rd election in the City of Tucson.

These are the winning results with 98.9% of the precincts reporting (but subject to change and updating due to close vote margins):

Council seat Ward 3: incumbent Karin Uhlich (D) leading by 573 votes

Council seat Ward 5: Richard Fimbres (D)

Council seat Ward 6: Steve Kozachik (R) leading by 1199 votes

At first Proposition 400 (the Home Rule option) was winning at 10 p.m. but now it is trailing by 622 votes.

With the vote margin so close in Wards 3 and 6, the final winner may not be known for a few days as Pima County Elections counts the remainder of the Early ballots and Provisional ballots.

Congratulations to all the winners and to both the Pima County Democratic Party and the Pima County Republican Party for their hard campaign work.

Here’s some Interesting updated stats from the Pima County Recorder’s Office on voter registration.

Note: the “Others” are the growing number (almost 63,000) of Independent voters in the six City of Tucson wards.
